granite i do not think (not even a tiny bit) that your T is saying you are making things up or is wrong. I think T is saying that BECAUSe of how your mother treated you. Everyone does it, just to different degrees. It is not meant to invalidate, more to try and become more aware when you are "distorting" your thoughts and maybework on changing them- to make YOU feel better.
